Wikipedia can be a great way to learn about unfamiliar subjects, but its articles can be difficult to understand. If you need a more basic approach to a subject, Simple English Wikipedia has you covered.

Say you want to familiarize yourself with the basic idea of String Theory but don't know anything about theoretical physics. While Wikipedia's normal article jumps into the subject using complex terms and assumes a background knowledge of physics, the Simple English version of Wikipedia explains it in a way a five year old would understand.
